With the youthful enthusiasm of a 19
year old, we patch up young Bowdler each week as he brings
experienced experience to the left hand side of United's
midfield with a sweet left foot capable of charming any
defence!
Popular with the players and
fans-alike, 'Uncle John' will play on forever!
Two time championship winner and
Three time Cup Final loser, John knows the ups and downs at
the club as much as anyone else.
Bringing guidance to the younger
players and 'Tiger Balm' & 'Strong Mints' to the dressing
room, John is the perfect bridge between youth and experience!
Vowing to play on until he is 53
which would, by our estimation, take him to the 2011/12
Season, half the players believe John will still be at
Hampsthwaite long after they themselves have hung up their
Nike's.
Time will tell, but this old warhorse
may lack pace, but stop him you cannot!
